I went over my last post about London and found it a bit meh. I threw it up on the web for the sake of putting up a post resulting in a pretty boring result. So a bigger, stronger and superior London post (this one) has been put in its place.
Saturday:
Jenni and I woke up at the unfortunate hour of 5am and started our journey from Florence to Pisa to catch a Ryan Air flight to London. Upon arrival we found our hostel and grabbed some food before taking a walk around the city to take in the main sights.
Sunday:
The initial plan was to journey towards the coast to a vacation town called Newquah. However, after finding out how difficult and expensive it would be to get there we abandoned the plan, called my friend Steph, and went to the apartment we would be crashing in for the rest of the week two days early. The rest of the day was spent hanging out with Clark students studying in London and a few of Steph's friends from home. In the late afternoon I got the chance to hear a famous boys choir during a service at Westminster Abby. We ended the evening with a giant group meal with various parts donating by all the guests
Monday:
We were crashing with a ton of my friends that have internships in London, but Monday was their day off. So off to Primark we went! A British chain store that has super low prices.Tuesday:
Leah, Jenni and I had a high end afternoon including a visit to the Design Museum and tea at the Orangery in Kensington Gardens. We all had the Darjeeling and it is highly suggested from all parties.
Wednesday:
A day in the country! Jenni and I adventured off to Morton-in-Marsh with the plan to go biking. Although upon arrival we discovered biking was not in the cards for us that day; the rental place is only open during the summer months. We settled on some more tea and scones at a local shop and a long walk to an arboretum.
Thursday:
Off to the shore for another day trip! We went out with Leah again this time to Brighton. The goals were as follows; see seaside, find this amazing milk shake place we heard about and generally frolic around. All goals were achieved.
Friday:
Friday was Steph's birthday! We all went out for Thai food and then to a karaoke bar. The morning was spent with Jenni and Billie at the Tate Modern Museum.
Saturday:
A group headed out for one last stop at Primark and then the evening was Steph's birthday part II at a dance club.
